What is this I don't even
=====

As a Game Master, I used a table top map for my players. After several cat
attacks, poor viewing angles, bumped tables, spilled sodas, and knocked
over figures, I felt a better option would be to use a digital map. I was
unable to find one, so I started building my own.

Then I found [roll20.net](http://roll20.net), and tried it. After going back and forth, I decided
that it didn't quite meet my needs.

Currently one can create and edit maps and save them using local storage.
As long as you don't want to save combatants, you do remote (cloud) storage
too.

It uses [Persona](https://login.persona.org/) for the authentication system.

Installation
====

Clone it. Then:

```bash
$ make devrel
```

Now, start it up:

```bash
$ ./rel/rpg_battlemap/bin/rpg_battlemap console
```

Runs on localhost, port 9090 by default. If you want to run it on something
different, edit `rel/rpg_battlemap/releases/1/sys.config`.

Tests
=====

Currently playing with angularjs and testacular. To get running:

1. install node.js
2. install npm
3. install testacular
4. install phantomjs
